Problems with patched gnu make ? (was:Need Volunteers to test patch for gnu make)

[Angelo Graziosi <Angelo dot Graziosi at roma1 dot infn dot it>]

I use this since Sep 08, but now I have found a problem with
http://www.cmake.org/files/cygwin/make.exe.

When I build GFortran with this version of make it fails:
--------------------------------------------------------
...
rm -f ./libgcov.a
ar  rc ./libgcov.a libgcc/./_gcov.o libgcc/./_gcov_merge_add.o
libgcc/./_gcov_merge_single.o libgcc/./_gcov_merge_delta.o
libgcc/./_gcov_fork.o libgcc/./_gcov_execl.o libgcc/./_gcov_execlp.o
libgcc/./_gcov_execle.o libgcc/./_gcov_execv.o libgcc/./_gcov_execvp.o
libgcc/./_gcov_execve.o libgcc/./_gcov_interval_profiler.o
libgcc/./_gcov_pow2_profiler.o libgcc/./_gcov_one_value_profiler.o
ranlib ./libgcov.a

--------------------------------------------------------


Using the official version in Cygwin of make (make-3.81-1) the build
is completed without problem:
---------------------------------------------------------------

To build GFortran
-----------------------------------------------------------
Unpack http://quatramaran.ens.fr/~coudert/gfortran/gcc-svn.tar.bz2

then
../configure --prefix=/usr/local/gfortran \
                       --enable-threads=posix \
                       --enable-sjlj-exceptions \
                       --with-system-zlib \
                       --disable-nls \
                       --disable-libmudflap \
                       --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs \
                       --without-included-gettext \
                       --disable-shared \
                       --enable-languages=c,fortran

make 
make install

Cheers,
